Making Design Systems Work in the Real World

We’ve been there before. Once a source of hope and bright future for the entire organization, a thoroughly crafted design system is slowly becoming one of those legacy products collecting dust in an obscure Dropbox folder. Why are we still struggling to make a design system stick? What seems to be the main problem? Is it that working with a component-driven workflow is too difficult, or that maintaining the design system feels like too much work? We wanted to find the answers.

You will learn:

  • How online choice has empowered the consumer.

  • The hidden marketing costs of manipulation.

  • The dangers of buyers remorse.

Production-Ready CSS Grid Layouts

CSS Grid has been around for a while, but what would be the right strategy to build bulletproof CSS layouts these days? Do we start building Grid-first, or Flexbox-first, or Fallback-first? In this chapter we won’t dive deep into the spec. Instead, we’ll look into the main things that trip people up when starting to use Grid Layout.

We’ll take a look at the fundamental parts of CSS: Grid and Flexbox. Key to both of these methods are concepts of sizing, space distribution and alignment. Our hope is that by reading this chapter, and building the examples, you’ll have a better understanding of CSS layout as a whole.
